There is nothing in the world worse than the feeling of helplessness, that you cannot do anything, and you are standing in hell, and you are unable to do anything but silently observe your pain.
Dear Friend,
My name is Ghazi Al Amoudi, and I am reaching out to you from Gaza, where life as we once knew it has been shattered. Our home, once a sanctuary, is now a pile of rubble. Each night, my family and I endure the freezing cold, hunger gnawing at us, and the uncertainty of what tomorrow may bring.
Every day is a fight for survival, marked by fear, loss, and unimaginable hardship. Yet, even amidst this despair, I hold onto one thing: the belief in the kindness of people like you to help us find a way forward.
I am humbly asking for your support. A donation, however small, can mean warmth in the cold, food for my family, and a glimmer of hope in these dark times. If you cannot donate, sharing our story with others might be the act of kindness that changes our fate.
Please consider helping through my campaign: https://gofund.me/8a2c70d7. Every gesture, big or small, brings us closer to safety and the chance to rebuild.
Thank you from the depths of my heart for taking the time to read this. Your compassion could be the light we need to see a better tomorrow.
With profound gratitude, Ghazi Al Amoudi
please help!!! we’re not even halfway to our goal!!!

It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraiser on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing
Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.
sometimes you just have to say fuck my stupid baka life and move on
Hey. Minors following me. Internet safety is key!! NEVER include these in your bio/byf:
Medical diagnoses - this is nobody's business but yours. You don't owe anyone an explanation for why you are the way that you are
Trauma - same reason as above
Triggers - people can use these against you! Don't give people tools to hurt you. No one has to know what tags you block. Just block tags to stay safe!
Age - age is okay for adults to include but is iffy when you're a teen. Predators want this information, don't give people more than they need. Just state that you're a minor, that's all that anyone needs to know.
In general: stay safe. If you're not comfortable with every stranger out there having access to this information, you shouldn't post it on the internet.
Play devil's advocate and ask yourself about what would happen if someone searched for your information with intent to hurt you. You do NOT owe anyone an explanation!
much better footage of the haka that shut down parliament today
